A “comforting fact” just before he died
As the health worker visits people’s homes to make sure they are as comfortable as possible before the end, he said many of them they experience the same “visualization” phenomenon.

This experience occurs often when people are close to death but it comes as a comfort rather than a terrifying experience.
“It happens most of the time at the end of life, but don’t fool yourself. It’s called ‘visualization’ and it’s usually very comforting for the person. It’s never scary: if they are afraid, they are probably delusions or paranoia, not visions “.affirms and spreads The mirror.
fear of death
Julie says people don’t talk about it much, but it’s very common and more than half of the people she cared about have experienced it.
“It is normal to fear death and I had several patients who expressed their fear, but then a family member approached them and they were no longer afraid, “he reiterates.
Julie, who works with people of all ages with life-limiting conditions, said visions usually occur around one month before the person dies.
However, he clarifies, if a person experiences it, it is not an indicator that they are experiencing psychosis or that they have a low oxygen level: “He is conscious and lucid.”
“Sometimes patients say that a loved one has come in a dream, or to others that they are awake. Many times people who have experienced this will say ‘I know it sounds crazy’, they are very aware of what is going on,” says the strange situation.

One person commented: “My father saw his brothers, my mother saw his sister and listened to my father, my grandmother saw her son who was already dead. He is as strange as he is beautiful to look at. “
